Dear Sir/Madam,
Just to let you know an aurora was seen from the
village of Grasby, Lincolnshire, England at 1950 GMT today Sat., March 31st,
2001. We are approx. 4 miles from Humberside International Airport: 53 deg
32' North / 0 deg 21' West. There were red rays clearly visible at
about 40 to 60 deg. above the horizon, emanating from low down to the north. The
sky was generally clear with some moonlight. There was also a general
milky white effect to the north like that seen at midnight on a clear night
around the June solstice. Now [ 2140 GMT ] there are no visible auroral
effects.
With best wishes, SW Andrew - Mr.
